The names and medical statuses of the driver and passenger or passengers have not yet been released. It's unknown how many people were in the truck.

According to the Associated Press, University Police Chief Tim Potts told the school newspaper, The Daily Mississippian, that the driver would be arrested on suspicion of drunken driving.

He said the FBI was notified “to make sure we are not missing any charges that could or could not be filed. We just want to make sure we take care of all angles on this and do our due diligence and go from there.”

He also told The Daily Mississippian, according to AP, that the statue’s supports appear fine, but a plaque providing context for the statue was among items loosened. Maintenance workers moved the loose items to safety, he said.

“The statue on top and everything appears to be level and firm,” Potts said. “There’s no imminent threat of the statue falling.”
